As a dermatologist and a mom, I've heard my fair share of myths and misconceptions about pediatric skincare. Parents want nothing but the best for their kids, but separating fact from fiction isn't always easy.
Join me in my Weekly Recap Episode, where I share the key insights from this week's podcast episode with Dr. Sheilagh Maguiness.
Key Takeaways:
- Food allergies do not cause eczema, but children with eczema may be more prone to food allergies.
- It is safe to bathe newborns and children with sensitive skin frequently, using gentle soaps and moisturizing afterwards.
- Not all products marketed for babies are safe; it is important to check the ingredients.
- Children should wear sunscreen from the age of six months and older, and mineral-based sunscreens are recommended.
- Teens and tweens can keep their skincare routine simple, focusing on gentle cleansers, moisturizers, and sunscreen.
- Not all natural products are safe, and it is important to choose products that have been tested and proven effective.
